Bowl of Saki for January 12 PEACE IS PERFECTED ACTIVITY; THAT IS PERFECT WHICH IS COMPLETE IN ALL ITS ASPECTS, BALANCED IN EACH DIRECTION AND UNDER COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE WILL.--Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Samuel L. Lewis (Sufi Ahmed Murad Chisti): Until the soul has found itself far above the mind-mesh, there cannot be peace.
